Frontier Airlines will launch new seasonal nonstop service from Milwaukee County’s General Mitchell International Airport to Phoenix Sky Harbor International Airport beginning December 7, 2016.

“Frontier’s new service to Phoenix gives travelers from Wisconsin and northern Illinois another option for their leisure and business travel needs to Arizona,” County Executive Chris Abele said.  “Frontier’s growing network from MKE is welcome news, and we encourage our travelers to take advantage of the great low fares and nonstop service Frontier provides.”

According to a release from the company, introductory sale fares on the route start at just $69, and are only available online at www.flyfrontier.com.  The new service will be operated with full-size Airbus A319 aircraft, featuring both standard and stretch seating.

The new flights, which will operate Mondays, Wednesdays, Fridays and Saturdays, will depart Milwaukee at 12:35 p.m. and arrive in Phoenix at 3:40 p.m.  The return flights will leave Phoenix at 7:20 a.m. and arrive in Milwaukee at 11:42 a.m.
